Federal Election 2015

Post by Jimmy » Sun Oct 11, 2015 6:58 pm

Who's voted, who plans on voting, and who doesn't plan on voting?

I'll admit, this is my first year ever voting, but went out yesterday and tossed in my vote. Anything to keep the Conservatives out.. :lol:

I always vote (will again on election day), mainly so I can complain about the result. Although this time it seems more important than ever to send a message with voter turnout.

Liberals are pulling out front according to the latest nanos poll:

I voted Andy Fillmore - as much as Megan Leslie has done around here, it seems as though he's got a better chance of contributing to growth.

I did the same in Sackville Jimmy. Peter Stoffer had done a lot. And this will be the first year I haven't voted for him. Time for change.

Since everyone except the conservatives have election reform plans, with any luck this will be the last time we vote this way (first past the post).

Kathleen worked in a restaurant in Montreal with Justin. His dad thought he should go out in the real world and experience what it was like working for a living.

She's done a lot of community work..stuff that doesn't really help grow the economy and build the city (ie: Saving the Sambro Island Lighthouse). That's why I voted Liberal.
